00:00Welcome to the Burnie compression cable pole installation video.

00:03In this video, we will show you the proper installation with the 12 ton 750 series

00:08installation tool installers can also use the 15 ton 46 series tools as well.

00:14See SOMI for more details. Before proceeding,

00:17it is very important to comply with all the safety precautions described in the safety

00:22operation manual, an instruction that is individually packaged with each compression

00:26cable pole. This video will guide you through the steps on

00:29how to properly crimp your compression cable pull.

00:32It is important to note that the number of crimps required for each compression cable pull

00:36is different. Each compression cable pull barrel is marked

00:39with the correct number of cramps and you can consult the SOMI for proper number of crims for

00:44the compression cable pull barrel. You are installing step one for all compression

00:50cable pulling heads, select the appropriate compression cable pull for the conductor being

00:55crimped and verify the conductor and compression cable pull markings are the same.

00:59The SOMI also indicates the conductor it accommodates for each compression cable pull

01:04step two for all compression cable pulling heads measure appropriate strip length line up

01:11the compression barrel to the conductor mark the cable at the appropriate strip length for

01:16easy strip length verification installers can use the do not crimpy online to measure strip

01:22length or review the SOMI which identifies the minimum strip length required.

01:27It is important that conductor is stripped to the appropriate length to ensure the wire is

01:31fully inserted into the barrel.

01:33As a warning, each crimp needs to have full contact with the conductor inside the barrel to

01:39ensure proper grip to the wire failure to properly strip the wire may result in a failure.

01:44Step three, for all compression cable, pulling heads strip the cable to the needed length with

01:50a wire stripper or another appropriate wire stripping device strip the insulation carefully

01:55to avoid nicking or cutting the wire strands strip the insulation to the proper length.

02:00So the conductor can be fully inserted into the compression cable pull head as a warning,

02:05damaging wire strands during the stripping process can reduce the conductor's overall

02:09diameter, which can result in less wire strands being compacted.

02:14This can cause the wire to slip from the barrel as the mechanical grip from the compression has

02:18been compromised. Step four, select the appropriate installation

02:23tooling. This is identified in the Somi step five,

02:27fully insert the conductor into the compression cable pulling head.

02:35Step six, apply the proper number of crimps to the barrel.

02:40Each barrel may require a different number of crimps.

02:43So be sure to review the barrel markings and or the soy for proper number of cramps,

02:48no rotational crimps required when using U dyes. Be sure.

02:51Each crimp is applied with a full Crump cycle to be sure proper installation as a warning,

02:57full crump cycles, installing a proper number of cramps is critical to ensure the grip on the

03:02conductor is not compromised, resulting in a failure for the YCP 31.

03:07YCP 34 YCP 39 and YCP 44 3 crimps are

03:14required place the YCP 31 YCP 34 YCP 39

03:20or YCP 44 barrel in the upper crimp dye use the crimp band closest to the lanyard as the guide

03:27for the first crimp, use the second or middle

03:34crimp band as the guide for the second crimp,

03:43use the third crimp band closest to the conductor as the guide for the third crimp

03:54step seven prior to use, inspect each compression pulling grip to ensure that the

04:00proper number of cramps have been applied and that there are no visual damages to the

04:04compression pulling grips or conductor after the inspection is complete.

04:08And the compression cable pull heads have been approved.

04:11The compression pulling heads will be ready for use for more information,
